What happened to the Democratic Party?

[struth]

Thanks for posting this, it seems some members on this board are mentally challenged.

It amazes me how slow some of these posters are

 

[meaner gene]

Hahah sure but they aren’t just members of the House

Representative(s) is used in the Constitution 36 times.
Each reference is either "house of representatives" or "senators and/or representatives"

As used the the US Constitution, it has only one meaning, that is members of the house of representatives.

Great it’s also a word in the English language used beyond just the Constitution

 

[HeyNorm]

You are pissed you did not throw away Trump like the American people wanted.

Not at all loony tune.

 

[lafayette]

Yup, you would be in the race, instead of fading badly, MAGA.

If you're going to talk about the English language, you need to first learn English

Both Senators and Representatives are representatives of their states.

How is that had to understand the difference between a verb and proper noun?

First and importantly representative(s) is never a verb, no matter how hard you try. It is a noun.

And as they say, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. The same goes for the Constitution. When in the Constitution, use the definition of representative as in the Constitution. And because the electoral college is in the Constitution, you have to use the definition from the article you posted.

holy f batman, you are weird, try reading the US Constitution, and taking a basic civics class

Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector. Art 2, Section 1 US Constituiton

As you cited, senators and representatives.

Can you name one “fascist” policy?

detention camps

detention camps

I see you can’t come up with any actual policies, just a bad photoshop.

Hate to break it to you, but “detention camps” are already used by every Administration to hold illegal aliens before they are deported. So there is nothing “fascist” about that.

But all fascists are MAGA.

What is a fascist? You can’t even define one fascist policy of Trump, yet claim we are “fascist”.

I’m not the one that doesn’t know what the word representative means

Project 2024 weaponizes the Office of the Presidency, the Executive Branch, and the DOJ into an instrument of fascism.

Isn’t that what Biden has already done?

Trump has NOTHING TO DO with your PROJECTION 2025, you ******* liar.

Trump has NOTHING TO DO with your PROJECTION 2025, you ******* liar.

He endorses it.

Project 2025, also known as the 2025 Presidential Transition Project, is a political initiative launched by the Heritage Foundation. Its primary aim is to reshape the U.S. federal government to support conservative and right-wing policies, particularly if Donald Trump wins the 2024 presidential election1.

The project outlines a comprehensive plan to consolidate executive power, reclassify federal civil service workers as political appointees, and implement a range of conservative policies. These include:

• Securing the border and deporting illegal aliens.
• De-weaponizing the Federal Government by increasing accountability and oversight of agencies like the FBI and DOJ.
• Unleashing American energy production to reduce energy prices.
• Cutting government spending to reduce inflation.
• Improving education by shifting control from federal to state and local governments.
• Banning biological males from competing in women’s sports2.

Critics argue that Project 2025 promotes an authoritarian agenda, undermines the rule of law, and threatens civil liberties1. Proponents, however, see it as a necessary step to dismantle what they view as an unaccountable and predominantly liberal government bureaucracy

Great it’s also a word in the English language used beyond just the Constitution

There are many English words in the Constitution, but when used within that document, they have a single meaning.
Ex: Lay - to enact upon
Bill - A legislative act
Uniform - equal
Vest - to impress upon
Union - A collection of states

Any other meaning in English does not apply.

Both Trump and Vance endorsed it but with Harris having the SCOTUS-authorized power for the Presidency, Harris will deal with MAGA when elected.

 

[postman]

Trump has NOTHING TO DO with your PROJECTION 2025, you ******* liar.

Project 2025 came from Trumps top and most trusted advisors. The same people Trump will, if elected, bring back into the white house as top advisors to the president.

I am not sure what any of that has to do with what I said. I wasn't limiting my comment to the US Constitution. Hence, why I used the lower case "r" in representatives, not the proper noun, with the capital R to refer to just members of the House.

 

[postman]

He endorses it.

Actually Trump runs away from Project 2025, and claims he never read it. But it was written by his close advisors.
